Consumer Description

While pulling a small trailer to go hunting, the engine just lost all power while merging onto the freeway. I had to pull over to the shoulder in high speed traffic because the truck had no power and had an odd clanking sound. When I took it to the dealer for repair, they stated that the lifter failed and also damaged the cam. This required a full engine rebuild. When the dealer went to test drive the truck with the new parts, ANOTHER lifter failed and also affected the cam again which required another rebuild.
